The event was a huge success and people were impressed that we were running the movie screen on solar power. It was a great set-up and Colin made everything very easy from the booking, through to the cinema projection. We hired Solar Cinema for our movie night as part of National Science Week in October 2016. Northern Territory Field Naturalists Club
To booking Darwin Solar Cinema again this dry season. While we were having our garden tours before the moviesĬolin was happy to DJ some back ground music. It was an awesome setup, the picture was large and clear and the sound Gardens as we don't have mains 240 volt power. Its was great have the outdoor solar cinema at The The Gardens hired Darwin Solar Cinema on a number of occasions for ourĬommunity events.
I would recommend Solar Media to people who want to screen films to large audiences in a location of your choice, with the knowledge that your event is powered by renewable energy. I found the experience very professional and reliable and have always been more than happy with their service. The quality of sound and image are excellent.īeing able to screen films along the foreshore is a fabulous and magical Top End experience. Colin allows plenty of time for set up and troubleshooting and our events have always run smoothly. All rights reserved.We approached Colin Carthew from Solar Media because he offers a stand alone mobile cinema to screen films powered entirely by the sun as we are keen to work with sustainable local businesses.Ĭolin was accommodating with council requirements, flexible with their busy dry season schedule and available at short notice.
